The head of staff of Vojvodina FC, Nenad Lalatović, is pleased with the edition of his team in the defeat against Slavia from Sofia.

Today, Voša recorded their first defeated at the preparations in Antalya, having lost to the team of Slavia from Sofia with the result 1:2.

Шеф стручног штаба Војводине Ненад Лалатовић задовољан је издањем своје екипе у поразу од Славије из Софије.

  • I can be pleased, the third match at the preparations is always the hardest according to my schedule and program. We had our training this morning, the players ran well, six kilometers during one half. We received two goals from two shots in the first half, and we had two good chances and in the second half, three 100% chances, but in this part of the preparations the most important thing is that no one gets hurt, because we play all the games out of effort. I didn’t give the players a day off, because we are focused on our first championship match, against Napredak from Kruševac. It was normal that they were not fresh enough today, and aggressive as they were in the first two matches. For the remaining two matches the plan is that the players who played 30 minutes today, play 90 minutes on Tuesday, and those who played 60 will play the entire match on Wednesday, and that is how we will end the preparations in Turkey – said Lalatović.

He also revealed his plan with the newcomer, Lazar Romanić.

  • I am only sorry because Romanić was not in the condition to work with us, he did only one training, but he will be a great reinforcement for us. Romanić can play in our system, he can perform high pressing, and I am certain that he will be ready to play at least half an hour in the last match before returning to Novi Sad, so if it happens that we can’t count on him for Napredak, he will definitely be ready for Partizan – Lalatović highlighted.

He complimented the character of his team, which is more and more physically ready.

  • In general, the players have showed great character at these preparations, especially when I criticized them during the first part of the season. Now, they are more physically prepared, and that shows in their games, but I do not want to spare them. They should continue in the same rhythm, and they will be totally ready for the second half of the season – Lalatović underlined.

In the end, the coach of Voša complimented the young players who played an excellent second half.

  • Even upon my arrival, I said that I didn’t know all the players well enough, and now I am getting to know them through games and I can compliment all the young players, because we have 7-8 bonus players here. They played the second half excellently. In general, they are all phenomenal, and the most important thing is that no one gets hurt, and that we are all ready for Kruševac – Lalatović concluded.

In the fourth control match, Voša will face the team of Russian Akhmat, on Tuesday at 3 pm, and you can watch the live broadcast on our official YouTube channel or Novosadska TV.
